Explore Birmingham with your hire car

  • Head into Birmingham city centre for a day’s shopping at the Bullring. The more recent addition of Grand Central adds more opportunities for shopping as well as a host of great restaurants. With over 3,000 parking spaces in central Birmingham you won’t have to look far to find somewhere to park your hire car.
  • One of Birmingham’s most popular attractions Cadbury World can be reached in under 20 minutes on the A38 from the city centre. Indulge your taste buds while learning about the history of chocolate and Britain’s most famous chocolate company. Drive your hire car around the nearby model village of Bournville.
  • There are also plenty of great places to visit around Birmingham in the West Midlands. Our pick is Stratford-upon-Avon which is around a 35-mile drive away in your hire car. We recommend simply walking around the beautiful town before catching a performance at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre.

Winter in Birmingham

You'll want to head indoors during winter, so don't miss the Central Library in Chamberlain Square - it has the largest Shakespeare collection in the UK. There's also the Birmingham Science Museum, Thinktank. Or visit the fascinating Jewellery Quarter and the Pen Museum, where you can make your own signature pen nib. Another favourite tourist attraction is the Barber Institute of Fine Arts, with its masterpieces from the Renaissance to the present day, by artists from Constable to Botticelli.
